Allegan Farms

While Art was still in college in the late 1950′s, he went to work at a resort in Michigan one summer and befriended some migrant worker families on nearby Allegan Farm. In this segment, Art reminisces about the time he spent with these people, his first exposure to Southern music, and the first field recordings that he ever captured.
